About Goulburn Valley Primary Care Partnership

Primary Care Partnerships (PCP’s) have been operating in Victoria since 2001 and are a Department of Human Services (DHS) strategy. There are 31 Primary Care Partnerships across the state of Victoria. Each Primary Care Partnership in Victoria represents a specific region. The Goulburn Valley Primary Care Partnership (GVPCP) sits within Strathbogie, Greater Shepparton and Moira local government areas. PCP’s form voluntary alliances with a range of primary care agencies and service providers, who are referred to as PCP member agencies.

GVPCP currently has 50 member agencies. Member agencies include hospitals, neighbourhood houses, and community health centres. Membership is open to any agency delivering primary care services to consumers within our catchment, whether or not they are funded by DHS. The Goulburn Valley Primary Care Partnership (GVPCP) sits within the Moira, Strathbogie and Greater Shepparton local government areas. This is also known as the GVPCP ‘catchment’ area.

A key benefit for organisations to become PCP member agencies is to improve relationships and achieve better health and wellbeing outcomes for our community. Primary Care Partnerships provide platforms for initiatives and programs that require effective collaboration and coordinated effort among member agencies.
